PARKING LOT MAINTENANCE
FOR BURLINGTON, GREENSBORO, DURHAM, CHAPEL HILL, NC & THE SURROUNDING AREAS

Parking lots are vitally important to any business. Your customers and employees expect to have a place where they can park their vehicles when on your property. The parking lot is also expected to be in good condition to not damage the tires of vehicles or cause someone to fall and get hurt. Unfortunately, the asphalt, which makes up most of the parking lots in Alamance County, does not always stay flawless. The constant use and the local climate take their toll on asphalt. Parking lots often experience issues such as potholes, depressions, and cracks. That is why it is important to always keep up with your parking lot maintenance. It limits the damage from expanding and helps prevent people from getting injured in the parking lot.

Benefits Of Parking Lot Maintenance

The best thing you can do for asphalt surfaces is perform regular preventive maintenance. Your best offense is defense. You should keep a routine maintenance schedule for optimal results. The benefits of doing so include:


  • Improved Safety
  • Better 1st Impressions
  • Reduced Repair Costs
  • Boosts Property Value
  • Prolong the Life of Your Asphalt

How Often Parking Lots Need Maintenance

Parking lots require regular maintenance to ensure safety, functionality, and longevity. The frequency of maintenance depends on factors like traffic volume, weather conditions, and the quality of the initial paving. Generally, parking lots should undergo a thorough inspection at least once a year. Key maintenance tasks, such as sealcoating, crack filling, and pothole patching, should be performed every 2-3 years to prevent further damage. High-traffic areas may require more frequent attention to address wear and tear promptly.

Preventative Maintenance Tips

Preventive maintenance is essential to extend the life of your parking lot and reduce costly repairs. Here are some tips:


  • Sealcoating: Apply a protective sealcoat every 2-3 years to shield the surface from UV rays, water, and chemicals.
  • Crack Filling: Address cracks as soon as they appear to prevent water infiltration and further damage.
  • Regular Cleaning: Remove debris, oil stains, and standing water to maintain a clean and safe surface.
  • Line Striping: Repaint parking lot lines and markings to ensure clear visibility and organization.
  • Inspect Drainage: Ensure proper drainage to avoid water pooling, which can weaken the pavement over time.
